It is true, they have tracked down my family to the mid 1800's and so far it is the same as the 1/2 tree we had done by a "expert".
Everything is from the US archives, and same for the other countries.
You could find all the documents on your own if you wanted to take the VERY long amount of time, and travel to where they are kept.
 
My main people in my family are listed;

Sister - Mom - Step Father - Step Brother - Father - Step Mom

Pretty much how well I know each person in order.

Well today i learned that my great great great Grand Father was Born in england.
 

I'm a fucking mutt, I have no idea how many things I actually am..
I'm mainly English though.
 
My family are the 21st century immigrants so I'm sure there is no record.
Btw how much is the service? I'd love to try it.

The service is $199 yearly, or $20 monthly for united states records (don't get, i am already out of the united states)

The international service is $299 yearly, or $30 monthly.
There is a 14 day free trial.


It is an amazing service, I just found out i have a English Shoemaker in my Family.

Yeah, haha.

Call back to around 1840...
 
I'm the sort of person who doesn't want to know my past, and I don't agree with having to pay to find out. If the opportunity arrives and I have the chance for free to find out, then maybe. Not for sentimental reasons, just to see if they were significant in history, or if they have gone through some of the most famous events of the 20th century (or before).
 
I was born in south-east Europe - would they have any records from that part of the world??
 
They have international records, I am not sure where.

On their site, there is a phone number. Call them and ask them is the best thing to do.

Or sign up for the 14 day trial and find out.
 

I just called support, got a fast response which is pretty unique. The operator said that they have records from every country and that I should sign up for the "world delux edition" (or something like that) to access all the records. I can't buy it because they only take a CC
 
The only thing I know about my ancestors is that they were really rich and wealthy because of their oil companies or whatever you may call them, but then war came, and everything got lost.
 
Nice I'll look into it and later come tell you my great great great grand father buried goaled under a rock. (=].
